Accidents in Fountain Valley — I-405 Corridor Dangers
Fountain Valley’s location along the I-405 freeway makes it a high-traffic area with frequent accidents. The city is bisected by the 405, and the major surface streets — including Brookhurst Street, Euclid Street, Magnolia Street, and Warner Avenue — carry heavy commuter and commercial traffic daily. The proximity of MemorialCare Orange Coast Medical Center and Fountain Valley Regional Hospital means emergency response is nearby, but the frequency of accidents in the area is concerning.
